FAQs 6

What is pumped storage hydropower?

Pumped storage hydropower provides long-duration energy storage that can help increase SRP’s supply of reliable, affordable and sustainable energy. Learn more about our plans to expand hydroelectric generation through the Salt River Pumped Storage Project.

Will SRP build a pumped storage hydropower facility?

The pumped storage hydropower facility would require construction of a new reservoir to act as the upper reservoir and additional transmission infrastructure to connect to SRP’s existing 500-kilovolt (kV) Coronado-Silver King transmission line near the intersection of SR188 and SR288.

How will a pumped storage power plant contribute to the energy transition?

The company is making a significant contribution to the energy transition and is continuing its corporate transformation towards more renewable energy generation. By storing energy, the pumped storage power plant will contribute to greater security of supply in southern Germany.

What is pumped storage hydropower (PSH)?

Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) is a proven energy storage technology. Its earliest U.S. operations date back to the 1929 commissioning of the Rocky River PSH project in Connecticut .

Do pumped hydropower plants have to pay grid access fees?

Energy ministry and/or regulator to ensure an appropriate classification for energy storage which applies to pumped hydropower, or a separate classification for pumped storage. In several countries, PS plants are classified both as a generation asset and as a final consumer, requiring them to pay grid access fees twice.

Will pumped storage increase global hydropower capacity?

If one-tenth of the global conventional hydropower capacity 5 is technically eligible for similar-scale pumped storage renovations, this could result in an increase of over 120 GW in storage capacity — 1.2 times greater than the total capacity of all other energy storage technologies worldwide.
